Dear %%$first%%,

Thanks for taking part in Geist in the Classroom! As a participant of the program, you and your students might be interested in our upcoming writing workshops. We have two writing workshops in Vancouver, one this weekend and one in June. The workshops cost $50 to attend and are designed for writers looking to improve their writing, enhance their online reach and gain the necessary tools to get published. With limited time to sign up and limited spots left, now's the time to book! Here are some details:

Writing from Life with Jane Silcott: What does it mean to write from life? What part of life do you write about? Which parts are worth writing about? And how will your mother—or anyone you're close to—react after reading it? Learn to write effective memoirs, true stories and personal essays—get things moving, find your voice and focus your project. The workshop will also cover the ethical questions of writing and publishing true stories.

Self Promotion for Writers with Trevor Battye and Suzanne Norman: Want your work read by a wider audience? Want to make sure your work finds a home with the right publisher? Want to make connections with the literary community? Whether you're self-publishing or working with a publisher, this workshop will give you a greater understanding of what you can do to increase your digital reach and you'll learn the skills needed to take control of marketing and selling your creative work.

All the best,
